Question
What should be done if a child has cerebral palsy?
Answer
Cerebral palsy is a condition characterized by low muscle tone, typically occurring before birth or during infancy. Causes of cerebral palsy include birth injuries, neonatal jaundice, brain hypoxia, preterm birth, and others. It can lead to delayed motor development. By three months of age, if a child is inactive, unresponsive, and does not exhibit crawling movements when lying on the stomach; by four to six months, if the child still clenches their fists tightly and has an unstable gait, or even presents with scissors gait, these are signs of cerebral palsy.
